I do have images with names that match those needed by DarkSky in the correct folder. Take a look at my screenshot for Icon Name 1 and the graphic shown for Icon Image 1 - the image being shown is not named rain.png. There is a rain.png file in the folder, and it's not that one. It's the one showing for Icon Image 0. that graphic is named rain.png.

Ok, hold off on any more changes and I will dig through the code to see why it's not updating.

grtaylor, I owe you an apology. I should have checked the code before assuming, I deleted the devices in my setup and re added them. The image did not update. I found an issue in the code. If you have the Forecast source set to "Same as Current" instead of "DarkSky" a variable was not getting set. This caused the device to not get the image put into the Status Graphics. I have fixed it and placed a new build in the zip file. Use the download link sent in the email and download the zip file again. This time you only need to copy the hspi_weatherXML.exe file out of the zip.

I just noticed the check box next to Condition Icon wasn't checked - so I checked it and now I have a new device, with the right icon.

What's odd, is I've never had that device before. I can use it, I'll have to re-do a bunch of screens to use it, but did something change? Did the 'Condition' device previously have an icon too....? That's kind of odd - I can update my screens, but wondering if you have a simple explanation - don't agonize over it, but it might help someone else.

Jeff, can you check what is being pulled from DS's servers for "Dark Sky Forecast 1." Both yesterday and today, I'm getting the nighttime forecast for what would be tomorrow's forecast, which also results in a corresponding nighttime icon. Forecast devices 2-7 all have daytime forecasts/icons.
thanks

This problem is also the case with 'Condition 1'. Thus, both 'Condition 1' and 'Forecast 1' will show the evening conditions/forecasts, but all other days will have the day forecast. Anyone else notice this?

I still have an older version HS test computers setup and I checked it. The Condition device only has the text for the Condition. The device that was called Condition Icon has both the Image and text for condition. The Condition device in the Legacy setup does have both the Icon and the text but it is not HSTouch friendly. All of the Legacy devices use html to format their look. They work ok in webpages but HSTouch elements will strip out html causing none of the layout to look right.

Does this happen the entire day or does it change from the day icon to night icon at a certain time of day?

I think I know the problem - it's on DS's end. To troubleshoot, I entered a different lat/lon, Orlando which is 1000 miles away from me. The error is not there. So it's something about my lat/lon, although I don't know how far out from my lat/lon I would need to go to have DS provide the correct daytime data. I will play around with the numbers but will probably end up contacting DS to look into it.

If you are still having issues after some testing, you can send you lat and long to me and I enter it in one of my test locations.

I have changed my Location display title to a shorter version than it use to be because I was having trouble reading the device descriptions in the HSTouch designer (they were to long). How do I get the actual plugin devices updated to reflect the shorter name? Will the plugin do it or is it something I need to do manually?
